  3. PROGRESSION AS A GROUP NBS Architecture has made a dramatic progression to the ArchiCAD model since the beginning of the project. Such progression has relied heavily on group collaboration and communication. Tasks completed include: Launch of the group blog page with regular updates and discussion forums between the members for productive communication. Modelling of the project to a respective stage whereby the drafting and remodelling has been accomplished thus leaving aesthetical and minor changes required for submission to be completed.

  5. NBS strives to communicate high quality work by using each members skills • This is most evident through the weekly group meetings conducted on Mondays at 3pm where the group attends to discuss issues, questions, queries and comments regarding the project to help overcome difficulties involved to reach our targets. • Within our larger scale group meetings there are often informal meetings between individual members. Small partnerships have developed where boundaries between roles are crossed. EVIDENCE OFCOLLABORATION

  6. GROUP PRODUCTIVITY

  7. Another significant group collaboration and communication technique that has been demonstrated is through problem solving of key issues. These include: Group discussions to resolve reservation and update and release issues experienced by members whilst trying to progress work Formulating timelines and project milestones for completing key tasks on time Discussions to determine colour scheme and model themes as a group for collaborative involvement between members Overcome the issues of launching the group website and thus teaching and educating all members in the correct use and operation of the website as it is a foreign concept to use Due to unforseen circumstances with one member the group had to collaborate to rework the landscape design that was originally allocated to Shay. In this we decided to share the task of remodelling the mesh as a group during the Monday lesson to overcome the issue PROBLEM SOLVING

  8. GROUP COMPLETION PLAN

  9. INDIVIDUAL PROGRESSION AND PERFORMANCE Individual contribution to the BIM project and collaboration between members.

  10. SCOTT ROWLAND Problems I have overcome thus far: After joining the group late I was assigned to design an extension for the first floor, in order to accommodate a rumpus room or children’s play area, as well as being assigned the role of Group Website Coordinator. Thus far I have successfully created a rumpus room plus a modest foyer extended out the Western façade by demolishing the existing front door and removing the Western living room window. By collaborating with both Brendan and Laura I have been able to compliment existing fenestration with fluid and similar window sizes and layouts. I have also proposed another extension to the group. This renovation, to the Western first floor façade, will create a games room as well as a dining nook while increasing my workload to a size similar to others in my group. After passing this by the group, both via our website and in person I began the final design. As Website coordinator I have chosen the layout and background for the group blog, set up categories under which information could be sent and received efficiently. With the guidance of Brendan I have created a space for general group communication as well as a personal space for each group member where they can post their progression each week.

  11. Future: • Complete Rumpus Room • Complete Games/ Dining Extension • Standardise all fenestrations and furniture to match existing • Continue to enhance website • Link Facebook collaboration to group website • Continue to organise and enhance communication • Construct two 3D renders

  12. JULIAN MINA Progress so far I started gutting out the bathhouse removing all of the walls, toilets, the bathroom windows shades and the roof. I was left simply with a blank slab to work on. I began converting the bathhouse into a granny flat accordingly by: •Increasing the size of the slab to accommodate for a kitchen, bedroom, staircase, bathroom, dining area and outdoor entertaining deck area. •Adding exterior walls. •Adding a flat roof. •Adding a staircase to the granny flat and cut a hole in the slab to allow access to the top floor. •Adding folding doors to the walls opening onto a deck. •Adding a bedroom and ensuite bathroom. I then added objects and more intricate details into my granny flat design these included: •Adding a bed and side tables to the bedroom. •Shower, toilet and bathroom sink to the bathroom. •Adding a kitchenette and dining table to the dining room. •Adding a slate custom texture finish to the exterior.

  13. BRENDAN BOYLE PROJECT MANAGER PROGRESS As both a Project manager and Interior modeller I am in charge of managing the progression of the project and making sure members keep informed and up to date with tasks, and offer assistance and guidance in completing tasks. Part of my role as a project leader is to set a range of objects and furniture as a guide/ library to be used throughout the project to keep continuation and fluidity of the design to show that our project model displayed communication between the members on our selection of themes. Communication has improved with the introduction of the group blog page in which daily updates of progression can be uploaded which I have been doing so and updating the group with important information from the week in my weekly minutes update. Here the members can revisit at any time the progress of the group and help answer questions they may have regarding the project. Facebook page is still going and working, conducting the meetings to the group every week helps to get understanding between members of the progression of project. Furthermore as part of a group assignment Isimilarly believe that my communication techniques have been very influential and effective toward all group members as all are up to date with where the project is at etc.

  14. ARCHICAD MODELLER Problems had to overcome to meet this point: In this role I am required to carry out a small interior remodel as part of my model contribution. My personal progression and performance in the group project has been accomplished to all my individual deadlines. Fix up walls and windows as outlined in my role thus completely modelling the interior first floor as per my contract ahead of time so that I could manage the group as a project leader/project manager. Model furniture and interior fit outs Colour selection, materials and textures needed to finalise the group colour scheme. Currently looking like the grey tones/neutral colours-textures but discussions are being conducted to decide.

  15. SHANNON STUBBS The remodelling of the basement is coming along quite well… So far all wall junctions have been corrected, as well as adjusting the structure from brick cavity to solid fill which removed the recess in the wall openings. I have also started the changes to the internal wall layout: the master bedroom area has ben started and the double room is ready for furniture to be inserted. The slab has been straightened and extended to fit the plan of the new layout. The stairs have been rotated to be square. I have altered the positions of the windows as so they are not over-lapping and I have started making changes in the windows settings. All furniture was removed, creating a blank slate that can be fitted with objects that match the rest of the design. The Following tasks need to be completed: Master bedroom: - Ensuite, - WIR, - Feature Wall Double bedroom: -Furniture placement Adjusting/changing windows Garden and Access to Applying Textures Group final 2D presentation and Fly-through Internal Renders Individual submission

  16. LAURA FEATHERSTONE Progress Presentation So far I am pleased with my progress. I have not had any major issues with the assignment. As planned so far I have: Worked with BB on exterior wall placement Worked with BB on exterior window placement Created a rooftop area above the main house Created an access to the roof top area Furnished the rooftop area Individual tasks left to complete include: · Modifying exterior textures and textures of my own objects · Creating the water system · Continuing contributing to the group page through individual weekly reflection Group tasks left to complete include: · Creating 2 renders of the rooftop area · Working with the group on final presentation drawings · Continuing contributing to the group page in the communication category as necessary
